I notice no one got too upset when 5 good ol' boys got arrested by ATF&E in Alabama while planning an attack. According to the <a href="http://www.al.com/news/huntsvilletimes/index.ssf?/base/news/1178097526131870.xml&coll=1" rel="nofollow">Huntsville Times<a>, <i>they</i> had machine gun, 130 homemade grenades, a grenade lancher... Why no headline news? The target wasn't American military; it was a community of Mexicans. My rant on this <a href="http://eclecticsanonymous.wordpress.com/2007/05/09/terrorism-it%e2%80%99s-only-a-problem-%e2%80%a6/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Shaun,

Why no headline news? The target wasn’t American military; it was a community of Mexicans.

My rant on this here.

Some look for anything to justify the coming WWIII and the culture war, but who many attcks by Islamic terrorist have we had since 9-11? These wackos attacking an Army base wouldn't have the affect on daily life of an attack on a mall or sporting event. Some mouth breathers were forcasting suicide type attack like in Israel, it hasn't happened, more have died from feces tainted food. I suggest we stop deficating so that "Detroit terrorist" don't taint our salads or pet foods. Shaun – It’s is the real deal, but did we hide in bunkers from the militias during the 1990’s?

Detroit terror conviction overturned

Justice Department admits prosecution was filled with ‘mistakes and oversights’

PUBLISHED: September 2, 2004,

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — In a dramatic reversal, the Justice Department acknowledges its original prosecution of a suspected terror cell in Detroit was filled with a ”pattern of mistakes and oversights” that warrant the dismissal of the convictions.

In a 60-page memo that harshly criticizes its own prosecutors’ work, the department told U.S. District Judge Gerald Rosen on Tuesday night it supports the Detroit defendants’ request for a new trial and would no longer pursue terrorism charges against them. The defendants at most would only face fraud charges at a new trial.
